The Right Thing

Simply–A song about the search for true love

I’ve been searching for the right thing
I’ve been looking in the sweetest places
But in the lines of every lover’s face
I see a lingering question mark
I’ve been hoping for the right thing
Something big enough to fill me up
And all I’ve been through no it’s not enough
To turn me off or make me turn away

Just give me one good reason
And I’ll let it go right now
But isn’t love the answer
We’re all searching for somehow?

I’ve been searching for the right thing
I’ve been looking in the strangest places
But it the mystery of each stranger’s face
I see a lingering question mark
And I’ve been wondering bout this right thing
Would I know it if it came along?
And would the beauty of it prove me wrong
Would it turn my world around?

Just give me one good reason
And I’ll let it go right now
But that would be the wrong thing
And what good would it do anyhow?

Cause we’re all searching for the right thing
Something brave enough to save the day
That’s strong and true and never goes away
To make it all make sense somehow

Just give me one good reason
And I’ll let it go right now
And if you find a better way home
Baby won’t you show me how

Yeah I’ve been searching for the right thing
